finally, soon, i hope

Finally, so excited to have the movers come to take out the last of the furniture and ‘stuff’ for the May sale at the Methodist church – only to have them stuck in a much largest project than anticipated in lake Oswego yesterday. Rescheduled for Monday morning. SO looking forward to having things somewhere so my house in the foothills with its view of four snow-capped peaks ready for a new and loving person or family!

lie still and wait

so long at bay, i’d begun to hope

the vertigo would never visit me again

but several times in the last few days

i’ve felt myself teetering

and twice now as i’ve turned

onto my left side, the world

has slithered by again and again

in rapid, sickening rotation

disheartened, i lie still and wait
